Reborn Soul: Me and My Family
Chapter 462: It’s easy to hide from open guns and hard to avoid hidden arrows
A slight cold wind blew over, causing Xiang Xiaoqing's entire body to tremble slightly. She thought to herself that she was too impulsive.
If it weren't for Brother Ouyang who noticed something was wrong and followed her, she would have remembered the close contact between them just now.
Her heart was pounding and her ears were red. This was the first time she was so close to a man.
The moment he hugged me tightly, his chest hit my back and it hurt. When Brother Ouyang carried me inside, it was almost effortless.
It turns out that the difference between men and women is not only in body size, but also in strength.
Looking at the little girl's blushing face, Ouyang Bai smiled and pretended to be calm.
"I just happened to be back for a visit on my annual leave, and I heard from the neighbors that my parents had come to the old house. I just happened to see you when I was almost at the entrance of the alley."
The man's deep voice interrupted her thoughts. She realized what she was thinking and said to Xiaoqing,
At this moment, I wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it. Oh my God! What was I thinking just now? This is Qingqing's brother.
I imagined myself as my good friend's elder brother. How could I have the face to talk to Qingqing from now on?
"Anyway, I still want to thank you, Brother Ouyang. Uncle, Aunt and the others came here early in the morning. Let's go back quickly!"
She didn’t dare say the last words because it would be bad if the neighbors in the alley saw her. After all, Brother Ouyang had just saved her.
Thinking of going home, Xiang Xiaoqing's heart was in a mess. She didn't want to go home. She was afraid that if she went back now, she would lose control of herself.
This made the vicious woman realize that it was easier to avoid an open attack than to guard against an arrow from the dark. This time, I was lucky enough to have discovered their plan.
What about next time? If I miss this time, how will I deal with it next time? There is no such thing as guarding against thieves for a thousand days.
Ouyang Bo saw the confusion that flashed across the little girl's face, and knew that the little girl probably didn't want to go home at this moment.
After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the luggage at his feet and put it on his back. "I also heard what those two people said just now.
Judging from what the woman said, some action will be taken tonight. The old man is old, so he should think of countermeasures in advance.
There is strength in numbers. You don't have to carry it all by yourself. Why don't you follow me first and let Qingqing and the others help you come up with some ideas?"
Yes! This is about the health of grandpa and grandma. What am I worrying about? Shouldn’t I discuss countermeasures first?
Xiang Xiaoqing looked at Ouyang Bo gratefully, "I was thinking wrongly. How can I handle this kind of thing by myself?
Thank you, Brother Ouyang, for your reminder. Let's go quickly!"
After all, they were in such a familiar environment. On the way back, Ouyang Bai deliberately slowed down his pace, fearing that he would cause trouble for the little girl.
Although he is a man, he understands how important reputation is to a little girl.
In the old house, the whole family had just finished their meal, and the two sisters-in-law were busy cleaning up the dishes. Ouyang Qing and the others wanted to help.
Not surprisingly, the two sisters-in-law rejected it.
Li Dachun: "It's rare for you two to come back. You two are not needed for such a small matter."
Zhou Guilan: "Yes! Usually the old lady talks about you two the most, why don't you hurry up and chat with her."
The two sisters were driven out of the kitchen directly. They smiled at each other helplessly and went into the house to find the old lady.
Today's weather is not as good as yesterday's. It's not as sunny as yesterday, so everyone is chatting in the main room.
The father and his two sons were drinking tea, while the grandparents and grandchildren were chatting about interesting things. Most people were in the main room, and the courtyard door was ajar.
This habit has never changed. Xiang Xiaoqing often comes to Ouyang's house, so she knows very well that even if they have a good time,
But this is someone else's house after all, and the elders are also at home, so every time Xiang Xiaoqing comes here, she habitually knocks on the door.
It would also let the host know that there was a guest outside the door, but today was different. Xiang Xiaoqing's mind was in a mess.
She didn't care about etiquette anymore. She pushed the door open and walked hurriedly into the yard. Although she tried to calm herself down,
But the result was still minimal. The three brothers were not afraid of the cold weather and were standing in the corridor of the main hall, listening to Qian Yanpeng telling interesting stories that happened in the brigade.
As soon as Xiang Xiaoqing entered the courtyard, the brothers saw her immediately. At this time, Xiang Xiaoqing's face was pale.
Looking closely, his eyes were a little dull, which was very different from his usual smile to everyone he met. The two elders were on good terms.
They were neighbors from the same alley, and they came to visit almost every day. Besides, the three girls were all good friends.
So the brothers were very familiar with her. Even though they were thick-skinned at this moment, they could sense that something was wrong.
They had been together almost every day for the past two years, and this was the first time that Qian Yanpeng saw her like this, and he blurted out anxious words,
"What's wrong with you, Xiaoqing? What happened? Third brother, are you back?"
The sudden shout made the people in the main room hear the noise quickly. Although Qian Yanpeng's voice was not loud,
But the clear words were like a stone dropped into the water, splashing water everywhere, and the two sisters who were chatting with the old lady in the room,
Almost the moment he heard her name, he stood up and walked out the door. How could he not notice that something was wrong with her mood after spending so much time with her every day?
Knowing that they couldn't get anything out of her given the current situation, the two sisters didn't hesitate and went up to hug her.
Three little girls were huddled together in the yard. The windows and door of the kitchen faced the yard. The two sisters-in-law were busy with their work.
I had almost finished cleaning up, but when I heard some noise and looked up, I ran out without even washing my hands.
The brothers greeted each other quietly, and Ouyang Zhou even took over the luggage from his eldest brother. Others were not aware of the situation.
How could Ouyang Bai not know? The little girl had forgotten to be afraid before, but now she has realized it. Isn't she frightened?
Ouyang Bai suppressed the urge to hold the little girl in his arms and comfort her. He greeted the elders at home first.
They had met so many times before, why did it feel so strange this time? There were so many possibilities.
In the end, Ouyang Bai attributed this feeling entirely to his two younger sisters.
How could he become like this when he just went home to eat? Ouyang Qing was very puzzled. After a long time, he realized that the tense body in his arms relaxed.
She breathed a sigh of relief and asked carefully, "Xiaoqing, it's cold outside, can we go inside and talk first?"
After she nodded, the two sisters helped her into the main hall. Ouyang Bai had already told the elders what he had seen.
The whole process was simply repeated. The old lady was the most excited.
She and the old lady of the Xiang family got along very well, and the two of them had long been the best friends in the whole alley.
So when she heard that the old sisters and their spouses were about to be plotted against, the old lady couldn't help but swear in front of the younger generation for the first time.
"When I first met that woman, I said she must be a tough guy. What happened? The couple compromised after she made a scene.
Normally, they would have been fine if they had been wronged, because they deserved it because they could not control their son. But who would have thought that the mother and daughter were such accomplices?
It's fine that he's always greedy, but now he's even thinking about this. He's rotten to the core."
The two sisters-in-law were afraid that the old lady would take out her anger on them, so they hurried to comfort her. Seeing that her mood was relatively stable, Zhou Guilan hurriedly said,
"Mom, calm down first. If you ask me, since you knew it in advance, it might be a good idea, but I suggest that we don't take it seriously at this time.
The most urgent thing is to invite the two elderly people to come home and discuss the next countermeasures. "
What I'm afraid of is that Liu Fangfang is so anxious to find a wife for her brother that she becomes crazy and ends up getting into trouble.
Hearing this, the old lady seemed to have thought of something and said anxiously, "What should we do? Hopefully, nothing will happen so soon!
No, I'll go and have a look."
Before she could finish her words, the old lady tried to run out. If she did, everything would be exposed. Zhou Guilan hurriedly stopped her.
"Mom, please listen to me first. Didn't Xiaoqing say that this morning? The whole family is here today. Besides, you look so angry now.
Wouldn't that be a revelation? Compared to your whole family, your sister-in-law is the most familiar with the old couple, why not let your sister-in-law help you go there."
Li Dachun didn't mind. Not to mention that they were all neighbors, the two families had a close relationship and the three girls got along very well.
No matter what I say, I have to make this trip, but what is the reason?
"It's totally fine for me to go, but my brother-in-law and I have only been to the Xiang family to pay New Year's greetings throughout the year, and we rarely go there at other times.
It's not a festival, what excuse should I have to come?"
The two sisters also knew the reason, and they couldn't help but feel scared for the younger sister. Ouyang Qing didn't expect that she had guessed it right.
I also agreed with my mother's words in my heart. We should slowly find a solution, and the safety of the two elderly people should be put first.
The old couple comes over to chat almost every day, but it’s not time for them to come over yet. They are afraid that something might happen during this time.
Wouldn't it be more trouble than gain? Just when he didn't know what to do, Ouyang Qing saw his elder brother.
His eyes suddenly lit up, "I remember when I came to your house before, I drank tea with you, right?
You like tea, right?"
Not knowing why his granddaughter brought this up, Old Ye Zi quickly replied, "Yes, tea is basically not available at the supply and marketing cooperatives.
The one we have is something your dad got through his connections. I usually don't even want to drink it myself. I used to make a pot of it.
You can stay with the old man for several hours, maybe you want to use this tea,..."
Thinking of that possibility, the old man also felt it was feasible, but in the past half month, he had lied that he had finished the tea long ago.
"Some of this doesn't work! I haven't made tea for him in a long time."
"It's okay, Grandpa. If you say that, he will definitely come. Aunt, when he goes, just tell him that I'm back.
During this mission, his comrade-in-arms brought a pound of good tea from his hometown. Grandpa was happy and asked him to come over and taste it.
As for asking grandma, you can just make an excuse and say that grandma needs her help."
The two old ladies have similar personalities. Just say this and Grandma Xiang will definitely come.
"You are smart, Qingqing. You thought of an excuse right away. Fine, I will go there now and bring the person back first."
Li Dachun was about to go out when he remembered that Xiang Xiaoqing was still at their house. "What should I do if I ask Xiaoqing about this girl?"
"Just say that the two of us went out to play with classmates and will be back in the evening."
"Okay, wait! I promise I'll bring the person back in a while."
Looking at the hurriedly leaving back, Ouyang Qing looked at the little sister again, and after thinking for a moment, he asked,
"Xiaoqing, they are ready to harm you, why don't you teach them an unforgettable lesson?"
"If I hadn't felt suspicious, I wouldn't have realized that the mother and daughter were so cruel that they didn't even want to let grandpa and grandma go."
"It's like catching a thief and taking the stolen goods. If you don't kill her right away, you will definitely have all kinds of troubles in the future.
Given the shameless nature of this mother and daughter, they might go to Beijing to cause trouble for you in the future."
"Probably not!"
This was said by Ouyang Yan. Besides, is it so easy to go to Beijing?
Seeing her niece was so innocent, Zhou Guilan quickly explained to her, "Of course not, even if this kind of person gets the upper hand,
She would be dissatisfied in her heart and come up with such a vicious method, which shows that she is very jealous. She thinks that the Xiang family or Xiaoqing,
She should give everything to her son or her parents, otherwise she is an unforgivable sinner. Do you still think such a person...
What would you do if you knew Xiaoqing had money and didn't give it to her?"
Ouyang Yan was speechless for a moment. Her aunt was right. Such a greedy person would not miss any opportunity to take advantage.
If Xiaoqing doesn't give it to her, it will definitely not be as simple as today. Thinking of this, Ouyang Yan felt goose bumps on her arms.
Li Dachun brought the two elders out very smoothly. As expected, every problem was solved.
Of course, I also saw Liu Fangfang. I couldn't understand why she became like this. She looked pretty good before.
No one could have imagined that such an ordinary-looking woman could come up with such a vicious method.
Li Dachun's eyes flashed with disdain when he said that the poisonous scorpion was a bargain for her. The old couple did not notice anything wrong during the whole process.
So when Li Dachun brought her home, the old couple were slightly surprised when they saw their granddaughter, but they soon realized something was wrong.
"What happened, Xiaoqing, why did your aunt say that you went to a classmate's house?"
After several people took turns to comfort her, Xiang Xiaoqing's mood had improved a lot, so when the old lady asked her a question,
He immediately stood up and hugged the old man, threw himself into his arms, and whispered to him about what happened when he returned home at noon and met Liu Fangfang and her daughter.
She was furious at the old man, "You are so brave, it would be so dangerous if you were discovered!"
Ouyang Qing's first reaction when he saw the old man was not about their own safety, but he was very happy for the little sisters.
At least the old man really loves her, otherwise he wouldn't have reacted like this.
"Thank you, young man Ouyang, for saving my granddaughter. Otherwise, an old woman like me would have a hard time surviving."
"You are too kind, Grandma Xiang. I believe that anyone who encounters this situation will not stand idly by.
What’s more, our two families are old friends.”
